Now let that red sword of virtue
Stitch right through my heart
My blood shall flow to the sinful grounds
And may my wounds never bleed dry

'Cause this is the blood sent from the heavens
And it shall pave the way to solution

Yeah, blood drips from your hands
And you will never wash them clean
Blood always cries for blood
The blood of the innocent screams for yours

Heaven now cries
With tears that are flowing
Forth like a stream
And the blood of your victims
Shall drip from the skies like rain
And may the sun fall into oceans of blood

Death and darkness shall reign
For ten thousands of generations
Your children will be drenched in blood

He who kills
Cannot love
And he who loves
Would never kill

There is no forgiveness
(Forgiveness)
When mankind forgets its duties to creation
(Creation)
And when my last words are spoken
(Words are spoken)
Your families shall be cursed

Now take my life (life)
Take my blood (my blood)
To fulfill your hearts of hatred (hatred)
You wanted the blood from the innocent (the innocent)
The innocent will splatter the ground with yours
(The innocent will splatter) the ground with yours
(The ground with yours)

Your children shall pay
(Your children shall pay)
For the sins of their fathers
(For the sins of their fathers)

He who kills
Cannot love
And he who loves
Would never kill

(Ten thousand generations in blood)
(He died and his words like thunderous blows)
(Rang and rolled over the Earth)

(Like a breath)
(Like a wind)
(Like a shadow)
(A phantom)

On the darkened sky
Crows will appear
To bring back the light
To the believers

This was the day
The Earth stood still
He left their rotten world
Behind
Murky storm clouds
Began to darken the sky
And in that darkness justice
Should rise again

This was the day

03. The Year Of The Crow

Into the sky
Into the blood-drenched skies
His soul flew away
To rally the death hordes up in heaven

Let's go

And wherever his soul may go
His words shall bring blood and honor

Hunt down the unworthy and the traitors
Soon it will come the year of the crow
Hunt down the unworthy and the traitors
Soon it will come the year of the crow

Who will save you now
From the sins of your father?
While the death hordes prepare
For the final battle

Hail, hail to the battle sky
Hail, motherfucker
Hail, the year of the crow

While cold winds, cold winds of death
Penetrate the enemies hordes
Glorious, glorious are they
They who ride, they who ride these winds

For they truly are the rulers
The rulers of the battlefields

Demonic crow unleashed
Her wings like a plague
Wings like a plague

Blood sent from the heavens
(From the heavens)
Make the sign of the cross, you devils

Hunt down the unworthy and the traitors
Soon it will come the year of the crow
Hunt down the unworthy and the traitors
Soon it will come the year of the crow

For they truly are the rulers
The rulers of the battlefields
Or did they really expect to reap love
While the seed is torture and pain?

Hail, hail to the battle skies
Hail, motherfuckers
Hail, mankind condemned to die
In the year of the crow

04. Everlasting Pain

May your weapons
Melt like wax
In the fire
Of the burning skies

In the fire of the burning skies
In the fire
In the fire of the burning skies

May your armies
Be torn apart
While the storm
The storm goes berserk

In the fire of the burning skies
Berserk
In the fire of the burning skies

Now hold on to your life
Built on lies and exploitation
Hold on to your wasted life
And pray to your god
You hold on to your life
And beg for salvation
Still hold on to your fucking life
There is no place to hide

We are reborn in flames
Reborn in flames, in the fire of the burning skies
We are purified in blood

And your pain shall be everlasting
And your pain shall be everlasting

May your kindred
Watch us
Pronouncing
Sentence

We are reborn in flames
Reborn in flames, in the fire of the burning skies
We are purified in blood

And your pain shall be everlasting
And your pain shall be everlasting

Now you walk the endless road
From heaven to hell
With every step you take
You can feel the pain
You filled thousands with sorrow
And now you get it all back
You filled thousands with sorrow
And now you get it all back

In the fire of the burning skies
Yeah
In the fire, the fire
In the fire of the burning skies
Yeah
In the fire of the burning skies
Skies

And your pain
And your pain shall be
Everlasting

Better die with honor
Better die with honor
Than to live with shame
Than to live with shame

Better die with honor
Better die with honor
Than to live with shame
Than to live with shame

Beneath the burning skies
Mankind's drowning
But we won't let
The Earth die

Beneath the burning skies
Now join our forces
As long as your heart
As long as your heart beats

06. More Tragedies To Come

Away, away from here
Beyond the reaches of the plague
The ravens return
The demons are rising
They spew death across

And fly

I spread my wings
And fly, and fly

Now as the end is near
Sun is set, forever gone
(Forever gone)
Beautiful days will never come
Again

Now as your end is near
Deeper, deeper fall away from paradise
In these days we spew death across the skies
Deeper, deeper fall away from paradise
In these days we spew death across the skies

Away, away from here
Beyond the reaches of the plague
The ravens return
The demons are rising
They spew death across

09. May Angels Come

Through all the pain and misery
You were supposed to bring us back the smile
We lay screaming in agony
For too many years now

Through all the pain and misery
Bring us back the smile
You were supposed to bring us back the smile
We scream
We lay screaming in agony
For too many years now
For too many years now
You own the plague

Mankind is nothing more than an empty name
I closed my brothers' eyes tonight
All your pretty faces
Hide the demons inside

Take me from this hell
Or take the hell away
Take me from this hell
Or take the hell away
Take the hell away from me

Like decaying Babylon
Your empires shall burn
And now you cry for freedom

Like decaying Babylon
Your empires shall burn
And now you cry for freedom

Mankind is nothing more than an empty name
I closed my brothers' eyes tonight

May angels come and save our souls
From the lies of this world
And save, save our souls

Angels of mercy
Go find your way
Through all the decay
Take us away

Up in the skies
The storm is raging
Mankind is now on the gateway
To extinction

Through all the pain
Through all the pain
Misery

Through all the pain and misery
You seek shelter
Out in the ruins you seek shelter
You will scream
You will lie screaming in agony
Rip your heart out
Until we rip your heart out
Your heart out

An army risen from the graves
To regain our place on Earth
An army risen from the graves
To regain

When I hold your cold face
To mine
I can see that the sun
Will shine again

Oh, when I
Hold your face to mine
I can see
The sun will shine again

Oh, when I
Hold your face to mine
Why don't you see
The sunshine again?

Our lives will go on
Without you
Our lives will go on
Without you

Without you
We will go on
Without you

I can see that the sun will shine
When I hold your face to mine
The prophecy will come true
An alliance with angels of vengeance

I can see that the sun will shine
When I hold your face to mine
The prophecy will come true
May angels come

Beauty before me
Beauty behind me
Beauty above me
Beauty beneath me
